FEC reports for the 2006 US Senate race aren't due until July 15th. Only one candidate has released his figures early. From the Chattanooga Times Free Press (not available online)

Republican U.S. Senate candidate Bob Corker's finance disclosure form shows the former Chattanooga mayor raised nearly $712,000 between April 1 and June 30 and spent about $267,000. For the election cycle to date, Mr. Corker has raised $3.35 million and spent $455,000, for a net balance of $2.91 million, the disclosure shows.

"It's a little more than we raised last quarter," said Ben Mitchell, a spokesman with the campaign. "We are humbled by the continued generosity of so many Tennesseans."

To date, no other candidate has released any financial information preliminarily. No word yet as to whether you get a free Casio with your contribution to Van Hilleary's campaign.
